Soccling? Bowccer?

Velco Dog and I have invented a new game. It's like a cross between bowling and football. I tell him to throw, and he passes the ball to me — like bowling, only with his mouth. I then kick the ball — because there's no way on earth I want to touch that thing — towards him. He's the goaltender. His job is to stop the ball from making it into the bathroom, which would mean I win.

The game continues for several hours until Velcro gets bored and lies down to chew contentedly on the ball for a while.

It's the most funnest thing ever in the whole wide world, says Velcro.

But there's no chance I will be leaving him unsupervised with the ball...

I should send Jinx over to play! He LOVES the soccer ball a friend left with us. He uses his front paws to stop it, kick it, push it around. Every so often he tries to pick up up with his mouth, but it's too big.

And I don't play with him as much as generally I end up scratched from his paws. I need some of them shin guards too!
